4-Variable K-Map

There are 16 cells in a 4-variable (W, X, Y, Z); K-map as shown in the figure below.

There are 2 wrap-around: a horizontal wrap-around and a vertical wrap-around. Every cell thus has 4 neighbours. For example, the cell corresponding to minterm m0 has neighbours m1, m2, m4 and m8

 

Example

F(W,X,Y,Z) = (1,5,12,13)

F = WY'Z + W'Y'Z
Example

F(W,X,Y,Z) = (4, 5, 10, 11, 14, 15)
F = W'XY' + WY

 

5-Variable K-Map

There are 32 cells in a 5-variable (V, W, X, Y, Z); K-map as shown in the figure below.
